Thunderbird email account download

I would like to suspend only one of my email accounts from downloading messages. (Since upgrading to 102.2.2 it is polled every few seconds rather than once per session as previously.)

There may be some kind of bug. However, I would check the settings under tools>account settings. Look under server settings for the email in question. There are 3 options for when to download (at startup, at specified interval, and allow immediate notification). If you uncheck all of them TB should never check with the server.
